The Holidays!

The Edwards Holiday Adventures!
We started by having a great time at Oma and Papa's house for a family party. We all had a blast talking, eating and hanging out (we were sad that McKell's family was not able to be there). The little cousins had so much fun playing together, we had a good snow storm that weekend so they got to play outside in Oma and Papas new back yard. Oma helped all the kids make a candy house (I think Carson ate more than he put on his house, though from the pictures you may find that hard to believe). We topped that off with more great food and then a very fun slide show of Brady and his family back in the day. It was fun to see a little resemblance between Brady and the boys.

We also had a fun treat when we got to drive our new van down to Arizona to to see my family. Everyone was there! It was a very full house with 20 of us but everything went so well and we didn't even fill squished. Even with the two pregnant ladies, Monika having twins (yeah!) and yes we are having another one too.

I was fun to let the boys play outside in the nice weather! Although we did get a little rain but it was still so nice.




Christmas morning was so fun and the boys just loved everything. But the best part was a big surprise from Grandma and Grandpa.




Grandma and Grandpa (it being Corntney's idea) rented a bouncy house for Christmas day and the day after. The kids were in that thing 24/7, even the big kids got a chance to bounce (I stayed out because of queasiness).




The kids also had a blast because Cortney got a kitten, which I really enjoyed too and now I'm a little kitty hungry. We had lots of girls outings and Brady and I got to go to the Mesa temple (which I think that temple is beautiful). We went and saw the lights at the temple and picked a lot of yummy fruit! We just had so much fun a week wasn't long enough!

Anyway there is a little glimps into our fun holiday adventures! We hope your holidays were just as full and enjoyable as ours!
Happy New Year!

Congratulations on the new baby! I can't believe Monika is having twins. Good luck to her also.

That bouncy house was a great idea! I'm glad your holidays were so fun! Zoe thinks the movie of Carson jumping is too short!
